dark mysterious sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

Thank you to NetGalley and Brigids Gate Press for providing a review copy. 

I love a good themed anthology. It's so interesting to me how different authors interpret a theme. So an anthology about what scares you most or represents you as a person is right up my alley. I feel like I got to know the authors a bit, while enjoying some top-notch horror. 4 stars
